Restaurants in New Westminster

“Really yummy food and I think this place is family owned! We came for the lamb and it did not disappoint. I also loved how many free sides and sauces the food came with. The pomegranate salad was amazing! The melted cheese was also so good!!

Service was really good here and staff were kind. The restaurant looks small but there's actually quite a few tables! We will have to come back and try the pizza next time.”

“first time ordering from them. Loved the crust.”

“Best Indian Cuisine Ive ever had. Must try the mango butter chicken and lemon chicken. Great family restaurant great service and top notch eats.”

She is an awesome employee and I would vouch for her service in advancement within the company”

“Yesterday night we visited Vadapav Mirchi By Geeta in a group of 8 people, and even though it was one of their busiest times, the overall experience was excellent. The restaurant was full, and we were seated at a large table, yet everything was handled very smoothly.
We ordered a variety of items:- Vada Pav, Sabudana Vada, Shrikhand Puri Bhaji, and Basundi Puri and every dish was absolutely delicious. The food was fresh, authentic, and full of flavor, reminding us of true homestyle taste. Each item stood out on its own, and together they made for a satisfying and memorable meal.
A special mention goes to our server, Parul, who made the experience even better. Despite the heavy rush, she managed our big table with great efficiency and a constant smile on her face. Her polite, attentive, and friendly nature made us feel welcome, and she ensured that every detail of our order was taken care of. It’s rare to see someone handle such a busy restaurant with so much professionalism and warmth.
Overall, the combination of tasty food and excellent service made our visit outstanding. A big thank you to Vadapav Mirchi By Geeta and especially Parul for making my birthday celebration so special. Truly appreciated! 🎉”

“We have always had the best sushi here. A hidden treasure in the neighbourhood.
Very convenient AND delicious and fresh! We enjoy the Japanese and Korean flavours and large portions.”

“Good food.Fair Price.Great ambiance.”

“Ordered a large Taco Pizza last night easy online order, quick pickup, and super friendly service. The pizza quality was great, just like a classic local spot should be. Only thing I’d suggest is to tweak the taco seasoning a bit it was missing that real taco kick and flavour, and maybe add a bit more ground beef. 😉 Still a solid pizza, and I’ll be back to try a regular one next time!”

“Enjoyed the food and waitress! Make sure you eat all your dinner if you want dessert! Enjoyed it so much we went back 2 nights later! Might be good for my waistline I don’t live nearby”

“My husband and I came here and we were both so impressed! The sushi was absolutely amazing – every piece was super fresh and full of flavor, and you can really taste the quality. They also had a great variety of beer and sake that paired perfectly with the food, which made the meal feel extra special.

The staff was kind and welcoming, which made the whole experience even nicer.

We left so satisfied and happy, and we’re already excited to come back again soon!”

“Exceptional quality food, friendly and efficient service.”

10pc spicy dumpling soup for $10

The owner is so kind. It is empty usually because it is a little hidden. On the corner of 12th street and 5th Avenue. Where the golphi’s sign is.”

“Fresh, authentic Japanese food! The owner is super nice, and offers great food at even better value! I look forward to making this spot one of my regular go-to restaurants!

I cannot recommend this place more!”

“I was having my last meal before surgery and The Whopper it was.
I pulled up to the drive-thru window and small talked with the young lady. Soon, I was blurting it out. You girls, you all get mammogram! You don't need a doctors referral.
The BK employee then handed me a Crown and said something like I could be Queen for my surgery. You got this! Then the next lady came over and she too brought me a BK Crown.
I was very touched by this moment. When they wheeled me into the OR I thought of the Crown and smiled inside.”

“My granddaughter and I keep going to this restaurant. I might say, I'm lucky that every time we come here, we receive a very warm and welcoming attitude from the staff. That's why I'd give them 5 stars . I can highly recommend them.”

“Decent portion of Fresh ingredients and very tasty”

“Amazing sandwiches and salad rolls!! so fresh and delicious. Highly recommend!”

“I often grab a chicken donair for lunch at work. It’s filling and fresh. Sometimes there’s a little line up but doesn’t take long. The amount of sauce is too generous for me and is adjustable as well as the veggies. I have not yet tried their platters and friends tell me it is enough for two meals.

There were some restrictions with credit card usage. I was not able to use my MC, so something to keep in mind before ordering.”

“A while back, my husband, comes home and tells me that one of his classmates told him about this amazing sushi places. So we decide to order. Not only are they delicious, their rolls are super big and amazing. The way they take their time with preparing each roll is just wow. Yes! It's worth it to try them. Soon delicious! Will definitely order again soon.”

“Everyone that works here is so, so sweet! Their classic breakfast sandwich is basic but delicious and only $6!!

Highly recommend going between 8am and 10am because it starts getting real busy after that :)”

“Savanna...greated us with a lovely smile...seated us in a nice table in the shade...it was a potential 6 quest seating...but she was cool with that...our Halbit was perfectly prepared as was the prawns... and the coleslaw and fries made for a perfect meal..the Okanagan Springs & white wine made for a great late lunch in The Hood...The Beattie Clan”

“Steel and oak is a such a great place to get together! It used to not be a place on my radar, but since the changes and new management it has been even better! Love visiting here with friends, family and of course dogs! Would recommend!”

“Friendly staff. Tried the black sugar milk tea w pearls last time which the pearls were nice and chewy but drink didn't taste milk or tea. This time I tried the matcha mango latte w mango pearls, drink was good and the mango pearls texture feel more like hard jelly than pearls but were yummy anyway”

“This is an awesome place to be for fast and tastiest food . I was there with a friend yesterday who introduced me to this and today I woke up , got ready to get another box for my second day. With the food, the lady who attends to you is very nice as well. While you wait for the food , she offered me a hot chai tea and a snack to taste. Great service with a smile . #supportsmallBusiness . Thank you for great good”

“Home cooking at its best Great, friendly service”

“Amazing latte and grilled cheez sandwich (super delicious) . Oat milk is free of charge yayyyyy!! Only thing is the pickles weren’t good at all. Other than that, it’s a Reasonably priced spot, great cozy interior, lovely staff, overall great vibes. Updated from previous review on 2025-10-27”

“Amazing food and service! Highly recommend!”

“This place looks like a hole in the wall in a industrial area. You look at the location and think that this may not be great. You would be so wrong to think like this as the food is amazing. We both had the Bulgogi Lover and we both were lovers of it. The plate may look kinda small but it has a good portion of food. We both left full and happy. The staff were friendly and I enjoyed the atmosphere inside.”

“Best lemonade in town! The panini were good too. No rush feeling, lots of people coming in for coffee and friendly servers 😀”

“First time having really great tasting food at a cafe (mango wrap). The dirty chai was also spectacular ! Close to Douglas campus and New West skytrain station. It's operated fully by the owner and their partner that tend to lots of customers daily. I'll definitely make sure to come by more often. They were very attentive to customers even during the busiest rush. Small detail, but the groovy music selection also made perceived time waiting in line pass by quickly and comfortably.”

“Best scone I’ve had ever. Americano with honey was fresh hot and delicious. Worker skipped the tip option which is unheard of but I asked her to add a tip. Menu includes salads as well. Wonderful friendly”

“Huge portion size and delicious food. It’s my first time trying out East African food, so I asked the staff for recommendations and ended up ordering their Massawa Tibs with beef and of mild spice. The beef was flavorful and not salty, and the injera was spongy and a bit sour but good. They even gave me more injera on the side.

The food was just like the pictures but I was pleasantly surprised by the humongous portion size. I’ll say you could order one and share for two people. I ordered one for myself but was left filled to the brim.

The staff was extremely attentive and made sure everything was ok.”

“Tried them for the first time, will never go anywhere else again for my Sushi 👍👍”

“Best Mexican Bread in BC The Conchas are the best!”

“First of all, everything was amazing! The food the service! And the environment! Wasin( not sure about the spelling) who serves us was really kind and friendly, he recommended good things and take care the whole dining time if we need something. The food was really wonderful at all time i have tried other thai restaurants! We had shrimp pad thai , chicken tom yum fried rice and papaya salad. All are perfect taste and we would love to have papaya salad more spicy ( may be next time order the spicier one). And i had the coconut mini glutinous rice ball dessert for to go, the mochi balls are so chewy and the coconut milk taste is very perfect and matching! We really had a great time and will definitely come back next time!”

“I was very impressed and satisfied !!The service & the food was amazing. Raul made me feel right at home.”

“I was in New West for a meeting, so after I was hungry. I had a choice, it was either McDonald's or across the street Jim's Cafe. I decided to give Jim's a try,and I'm sure glad I did. The atmosphere was great, service was wonderful and the food was just great!! To bad I live in North Vancouver, otherwise I would be at Jim's almost everyday. But I'll be there, for sure, next time I'm in New Westminster!! See you then!!!”

“Great customer service ,delicious cinnamon buns and coffee☕️”

“Authentic Northern Chinese hand pulled/cut noodles. We ordered a spicy cold noodle and an order of pork and vegetable dumplings (SUPER JUICY), the portions were pretty big and the price is reasonable. Family run restaurant with a lot of options. Will definitely come back again. We wish we had more time and people with us so we could have ordered MORE.

Went in for a quick dinner before a movie next door with...30min to spare. Mentioned that while ordering and they were very nice to accommodate and speed up the service.”

“I must be honest I only buy Donair. But his is the best. Haven't found anything equal as good. His secret sauce makes him the King of Donaires. ❤️👍👍”

The crust is buttery, the toppings are high quality, and the service is outstanding. Thank you to Daisy for the great conversation, and amazing food! You guys are amazing!”

“My wife and I just had lunch at Pho Maxima and everything was absolutely delicious. I ordered the pork spring rolls and the beef ball noodle soup pho, and my wife had the chicken ball noodle soup pho; both dishes were incredibly flavorful and comforting.

The service was amazing, and the woman who helped and served us was so kind and welcoming, which made our visit even better. This was our first time here, but it’s definitely become our new go-to spot for pho. Overall, an amazing experience from start to finish. Highly recommend!”

“The food is always great and they seem to maintain their taste on my favourite dishes. The salmon was cooked to perfection as I have requested. The only thing is, they served it with a small portion of rice (as substitute) which our server happily asked the kitchen for more. ( I told him to tell the kitchen staff to never serve 3 tablespoons of rice to an Asian customer.)”

She is an awesome employee and I would vouch for her service in advancement within the company”

“From the moment I stepped inside Fuel Hut, I felt the difference—not just in the clean, vibrant atmosphere, but in the energy of the team. The leadership here is truly exceptional. You can tell the employer cares deeply about the staff, fostering a positive, respectful environment where everyone is motivated and supported. It’s extremely rare to find such grounded and inspiring leadership in a small business!

As for the smoothies—AMAZING! Every blend is made with 100% organic ingredients, and the transparency in their process is refreshing. You actually know what you’re putting into your body. No hidden additives, no gimmicks—just pure, clean fuel that tastes as good as it makes you feel. The Iron Man and Orange Dream are personal favorites, but honestly, you can’t go wrong with anything on the menu.

Fuel Hut isn’t just a smoothie shop—it’s a community built on wellness, honesty, and care. Whether you’re grabbing a quick nutrient-packed smoothie or looking for a place that values both health and humanity, this is the place to be.

Highly recommend! 🌱🥤💪”

“Chaiiwala is my favorite place in Canada. I come here every day and always enjoy my Chaii. The staff are kind and always smiling, and the female employees are elegant and very friendly. The place is very clean and their food is delicious. I love this place and will definitely keep coming back.”

“My favourite hotpot restaurant :) I love the individual hot pot idea and all the ingredients are very fresh and tasty. Always have an amazing experience here”

“I’ve been ordering Korean meals from Banchansu for a little over four weeks and it’s been amazing every time. I’m very picky, and my mom—born and raised in Korea—set a high bar for me, so I’m usually hesitant to order Korean food. Banchansu changed that. The flavors are authentic and delicious, and I look forward to every meal. The staff are caring and kind, too. Thank you for meals that taste like my mom’s cooking.”

“I live within walking distance but have only been to this 'restaurant' about 4 or 5 times since 2019. The cafeteria is in the basement of city hall. City hall is NOT in a shopping area so it's not a destination generally.

The food is easily the lowest priced in the area, if not the lower mainland!

It's not haute cuisine but regular North American fare, eg, eggs, omelettes, English muffins, soups, sandwiches, etc.
As a coffee lover, I didn't like my coffee, though.
Service was very friendly and I wanted to leave the lady a little something but they said they couldn't accept gratuities.”
